According to a post on her Instagram account, the Saudi princess says the launch of the NFT collection adds yet another chapter to her long career as a photographer that she started in her childhood. She is quoted by Unlock Media as explaining:
Today we made history with the first appearance of Saudi NFTs on Metaverse. I've been photographing my whole life, since I was a kid, so I don't consider it a career as much as a part of me. It's as natural to me as talking or breathing.Reem Al Faisal added that photography is another way of expressing his faith and a way of showing “man’s relationship with his creator”.
